Kind of odd that the three Americans have practically the same score. (I know the internals are quite different, but they each add up to the same thing.)

I don't think so. I didn't see Richard or Ross performance. That said, All three in the international judges eyes are about equal as far as "reputation" PCS, though Miner and Dornbush clearly show they had more artistry/speed/non jump elements. But Bradley did complete a 4-2, which helped him edge them as far as TES.

Anton Kovalevski

It's a keyboard with primary-colored notes!

Strange opening since he doesn't have a lot of speed going into the 3A, and it was thus shaky coming out. An okay 3Lz+3T and 3Lo. I'm usually open-minded to a concept, but I don't get it and it's just too frenetic for me to care about whatever he's posing and flailing about. Whackadoodle dandy?
